Its the off season, and will be a very long one. Just wanted to ask a few others something.

It may be just me, but does anyone else get goosebumps on gameday walking up the strip/to the stadium in a sea of Big Orange? No matter how bad of a season we have, when that first weekend in September rolls around, Im so excited that Friday night prior that I cant sleep. I drive 90 down 75 to get to beautiful Big Orange Country as fast as I can. I arrive and still become amazed at how much I love my Vols.

Anyone else like this? Or is it just me? :)

Personally, I would love to get there safely next time.

If you dont drive 90 down 75 on a saturday morning, you get run over. Or at least thats always the crowd I seem to get stuck with. :)

I drive UP 75 to get to Knoxville and I am the only one going 90. Guess there aren't that many fans coming from Georgia. Who woulda thought? :)

There's no better drive than the drive from Nashville to Knoxville in the fall.

Actually, I'd say the OP has a better drive simply because it's two hours shorter. :)

I used to live in Cleveland and have made it to Knoxville in 45 minutes. From Nashville it's a different story. Might as well take your time because it's pretty much a three hour trip regardless.

I don't get to make it to as many home games as I once did but the Bama game I always make. With the history, environment, and everything that goes into that game, I just don't see how Vol fans can sell off their tickets. Even though recent history has sucked we only get so many of these games in a lifetime.
